The Uncompromised Quality of Italian Leather Furniture

Cierre

Cierre was founded in 1972 by Romano and Cesarina Conficconi. This husband and wife team’s story is unique because they were the first in the industry to have a company that incorporates the full production cycle, from design to production to a finished product.

It was more than a business, but an expression of their love. Keeping with the multi-generational tradition, their son Stefano is Cierre’s current designer and his son Gian Marie is very involved in the business as well. Their legacy is sure to live on.

Part of Cierre’s 2022 collection, this custom-made modular sofa pushes the limits of what can be done with leather. The way the leather curves around the seats creates an unexpected ruched effect. The minimal design pops with decorative chrome bars that can only be seen from the often-forgotten design areas—the sides and the back.

Bracci

Bracci is a family-owned brand, founded in 1964 in Florence, Italy. The Bracci family initially focused on the local European market. As their reputation for meticulous quality and modern aesthetic spread, they limited production to the US market. Although they only sell to the US, their leather and custom-made designs are made 100% in Italy.

You know a Bracci piece when you see one, as their signature aesthetic is incomparable. They offer a range of clean and contemporary sofa designs. Two of their most popular pieces are the Living sectional and the Glamour sectional. Although similar in aesthetics, the difference is in the details.

Bracci understands the unique preferences of the American clientele and has tailored their models accordingly. The seat heights are slightly higher, providing optimal comfort, while the depth is not as deep. The seats are also firmer, meeting the expectations of American customers who desire a specific level of support.
